I know that Blue Cross Blue Shield offers good health insurance for private parties. Might check it out.
Then - did your Dr do more than one exam of the mass?? Were you on your period. I know I'm coming at this from a completely different point of view but the women in my family commonly have fiborous breasts with unusual masses frequently and NONE (5 different surguries 2 women) have turned up cancerous. They show more fiborous masses during mentration. Our Dr's generally do more than one mammogram at different times of our cycle to see if the masses change. They have discovered that the masses shrink at certain times. They never cause problems and No one in my family has had cancer. Just get your Dr to double check things. Don't wait though. A friend of my family's just passed away because she let it go. Once they got to it she was to far gone. She battled cancer for 10 years though. I wouldn't hesitate to get it treated.
As for the chicken pox - that sounds strange. It's unusual for a person to get chicken pox a second time. When they do it usually follows the paths of the nervous system in the body (ie. the pox will show up on the skin in lines) and it ends up being shingles. Which is just about as contagious as chicken pox. Not to question your Dr but there are several other viruses out there that are similar in type to the chicken pox virus and look similar. They are all just as contagious though so it's very possible your boyfriend has already been exposed. If he's concerned he could check to see if he's had the varicella (chicken pox) vaccine. If he's had that one then he may have nothing to worry about.
